Pros

THE PEOPLE Staff are competent and timely. They value the culture and relationships built in the workplace. We tell a lot of jokes (all HR appropriate of course) and know (and care about) what is going on in each other's lives outside of the office. Management is experienced and kind. They recognize that their employees have value beyond spreadsheets. They constantly strive to mentor and have an open door policy to discuss anything with them. SOME OTHER PROs 1) The Culture - We value the individual and the team and have a bunch of fun together 2) The Collaboration - There is a wide range of experience company wide (450 employees) and every everyone is easily accessible and ready to help. 3) The Pay - It was a 40% raise when I started working here and I know that I'm not alone on that. 4) Opportunities - The company is growing and there is lots of room for advancement. 5) Stability - This is not a hire to just turn around and fire firm.

Cons

Management expects you to finish a task that you are assigned and meet deadlines. Occasionally that means you stay until 6 or 7 doing that. Welcome to the industry.

Pros

The staff. Most are dedicated and good people yet they won’t stay for very long. If they’re smart, the realize life is too short or they’ve got massive self-preservation techniques.

Cons

The Denver Management team. It’s a joke when the community sees your job offerings in Denver because they’re always up and it’s common knowledge that the office culture is toxic
